Briefly

Carter's grandson Jason Carter noted that even though his grandfather is physically constrained, "he's still emotionally active and he's paying attention to the world and having experiences that continue to be rewarding." This highlights the resilience and active engagement of a great leader despite his advanced age and current health challenges.
President Biden and others extended birthday wishes to Carter, exemplifying the respect and admiration he commands across party lines, showing how his legacy transcends politics.
Carter, who has been in home hospice care since February, celebrated his milestone with a parade in Plains, Georgia, as well as a star-studded event in Atlanta, illustrating how his community and the nation honor his contributions.
